The beginner’s guide to skincare. Viral products. Celebrity makeup lines. Influencers plugging the latest launches all over your TikTok and Instagram feeds – the beauty industry is saturated with products promising the world. It can be hard to cut through the glamour, compelling campaigns, beautiful packaging, clinical claims, and industry jargon to discover the skincare you actually need. What is the ultimate skincare routine? And how do you create your own natural beauty regimen? Our comprehensive skincare guide is here to simplify skincare and help you unlock a healthy, radiant complexion. Ready to build your bespoke routine? What Skin Type Do I Have? Your skincare will work best if it works for you. The reason there’s so much choice out there is that each formulation targets specific skin concerns and skin types. To supercharge your results and ensure you get all the benefits of our freshly made skincare, you only need products that work for your unique skin. Younger skin will benefit from just the basics (cleanser, toner, moisturiser, and SPF) and likely doesn’t need anything too intensive just yet. Mature skin will benefit from more active and richer formulations, like our serums and oils. Once you’ve considered your age, it’s time to understand the types of products and ingredients your skin needs by determining your skin type. You can book a free consultation with one of our Ambassadors, who can help build a routine tailored to you. To find out your skin type, follow these simple steps: Cleanse Your Face: Wash your face with Smoothing Cleanser and pat it dry. Wait and Observe: Leave your skin bare for a few hours without applying any products. Evaluate: Oily Skin Your skin feels greasy and shiny, especially on the T-zone (forehead, nose and chin). Dry Skin Your skin feels tight, rough, or flaky. Combination Skin You have an oily T-zone but dry or normal cheeks. Normal Skin Your skin feels balanced, neither too oily nor too dry. Sensitive Skin Your skin reacts easily, becoming red, itchy, or irritated. Step One: Cleanser Cleansing is always the first step to achieving brighter, smoother, and healthier-looking skin. A twice-daily cleanse is the foundation of a strong and effective routine. SMOOTHING CLEANSER complexion purifier For all skin types, especially dry, dehydrated and sensitive skin.
